I got a beta! Thank you BladeMaxwell-GoddessofDeath for all your help and putting up with me!
"I am sorry," was the first thing Bane said to Harry when they had woken the next morning.
"What do you mean?" Harry asked in confusion, "I mean you've just treated me like any other human."
Bane bowed his head, "I might have but you are no human, you are a foal of my herd. I mistreated you."
"Don't worry about it," Harry said as he ran a hand through Bane's mane "Madam Pomphrey has spoken to me the other night along with my Godfathers so I know what happened."
"But I've still mistreated you and for that foal, I am sorry," Bane said.
Hearing a knock at the door, Bane slowly stood up while being careful his hooves didn't crush Harry and walked over to the door. As Bane opened the door he made sure that he was standing over Harry protectively.
When the door opened it reviled Pansy Parkinson who had a quill and parchment in hand.
"So cute!" Pansy squealed "Harry can I have your hoof print? I mean it's said to have-"
"Out," Bane said as picked up Pansy by the neck of her robes and carried her out of their room.
"Bane, wait…" Harry said but Bane didn't hear as he was too far out of the door.
With a sigh Harry grabbed onto the side of the nearby chair that Sirius had been sitting in earlier and lifted himself up. It took a couple of goes but he soon found himself standing on his shaky horse legs while using the chair for support.
"Stage one complete," Harry said to himself with a nod of his head. "Now for stage two."
Slowly Harry reached for the chair Remus had sat in and attempted his first few steps. After a few goes he made it and then used the same method to get to the doorway.
Once he was at the doorway, Harry called out to Bane. "Wait! She doesn't mean any harm, she's just a friend and she's into magical creatures."
Bane paused at the sound of Harry's nearby voice, as he dropped Pansy (who ran out of the Hospital wing to keep her Slytherin self-preservation) Bane found Harry to be standing in the door way, using the frame for support.
"Don't jump to conclusions," Harry said as he let go of the door frame and started to walk to Bane.
Bane ignored whatever scolding was coming his way from Harry. All he cared about was the foal's first few steps. Bane lowered himself so his horse half was kneeling at the correct level for Harry to grip onto if he fell or needed any help.
Harry made his first few steps without any help, his eyes were solely on Bane, and just trying to get there was going to be a big achievement in itself. Harry moved one of his horse legs at a time, the sound of the hooves echoed in the silent hospital wing.
It only took a few minutes but after what seemed like ages, Harry finally made it to Bane and proceeded to get swept up into a hug.
"I am so proud of you, my mare," Bane said as he hugged Harry tightly.
Harry blinked in shock and looked up at Bane. "Mare?"
Bane looked down at Harry in confusion. "Yes my mare, I thought you knew?"
"I don't, so tell me," Harry said as he stamped one of his hooves, he really didn't like not knowing things.
Bane looked Harry in the eyes "We are mates, you are my mare and I'm your stallion, we belong to each other, although, you're a bit young for the final stage of the bonding process."
